When does the time for the Friday prayer begin

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, regarding delaying the Friday prayer, which is better: the imam hastening to begin, or delaying the prayer and the sermon? What is the criterion for this?

Answer:
The Friday prayer begins when the sun passes its zenith. The imam should hasten so as not to burden the people with waiting. Once the sun has passed its zenith and the time for the midday prayer has entered, the imam should proceed to the two sermons and the prayer, so that the people are not burdened by waiting and delay. Yes.
